Collage and Creating Art for Virtual Reality

In the history of modern art, the concept of collage as something that could be taken seriously was a breakthrough.

Pablo Picasso and Georges Braques pushed the concept further with Cubism, turning people and things into mixed-perspective shapes that were more recognizable for the feelings they inspired than the pictures they produced.

A 3D model can be unwrapped into a 2D surface — kind of like deconstructing a box used for packaging. Once the model is in 2D, photos can be applied to the surface in a digital collage (hand painting can also be added, creating a blend between photo collage and painted graphics). When the photo is applied as a texture, it’s like wrapping the model back up with strategic wrapping paper.

The result isn’t photorealistic, but it creates a layered look. It’s a cubist collage that you can walk around. It also continues to beg the question that Cezanne, Picasso and Braques initiated: what is art?
